What is the molality of a solution made by dissolving 14.7g of C₆H₁₂O₆ into of water? Assume the density of water is 1.00g/mL . A)0.544 B)0.0816 C)10.2 D)0.980 E)none of the above

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molality is calculated by dividing the moles of solute by the kilograms of solvent. The molar mass of C6H12O6 is 180.18 g/mol, so 14.7 g is 0.0816 mol. Assuming 1 kg of water (1000 g), the molality is 0.0816 mol/kg, which is approximately 0.544 mol/kg.
